Chapter 426: Break the siege
Early in the morning, Daisy Ginger was shaken awake by the phone vibrating under her pillow before she was
fully conscious.
She kept her eyes closed, feeling groggy, and picked up the phone casually, hearing Elena Raven's assistant
Jessica on the line with a sobbing voice saying, "Sister Ginger, quickly cto the company, Helen Hyde and
Elena have started fighting!"
In the background of the call, there was the sound of Helen Hyde angrily hurling insults at Elena Raven.
Daisy suddenly becalert and sat up in bed, "Keep your phone on. Tellwhat happened. I'll be there soon."
Today was Daisy's day off, but she had no choice but to immediately throw off the blanket and get out of bed.
Jessica, crying, recounted to Daisy the incident of Elena Raven and Helen Hyde's quarrel.
It turned out that today, while Elena was getting her makeup done in the dressing room, Helen sat next to her,
and Elena’s makeup artist moved too forcefully, accidentally bumping into Helen and smudging lipstick on her
designer outfit.
Helen immediately demanded full compensation for her clothes, which scared the young makeup artist into
tears. Elena couldn’t help but defend her makeup artist, and the two started arguing.
"Wait forin the dressing room, I'll be right there."
Daisy washed her face in the bathroom, skipped putting on makeup, hung up the call, and walked straight out
the door.
Thinking about Helen Hyde made Daisy scowl.
Helen Hyde was the first female artist signed by Royal Entertainment after it had just opened.
Back then, Daisy personally guided her from a recent Beijing Film Academy graduate to her current position as a
popular young actress. When the company was just starting, Helen was also not well-known, and at first, they
got along quite well. However, when a few artists who signed later than her began to rise in fame, she started
complaining that the resources Daisy provided weren't good enough, began acting like a diva, and even rejected
the movies Daisy secured for her, opting instead to audition for TV s behind Daisy's back.
Daisy intended for her to focus on the big screen, but Helen was contemptuous of the lower exposure compared
to TV series, which later resulted in Daisy offending a movie director. Fortunately, they hadn't gotten around to
signing the contract, otherwise, they would have had to pay compensation.
Due to this incident, Daisy had a fight with her. Helen, after all, was a founding artist of the company, so Daisy
eventually handed Helen over to another manager.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLater, the movie Daisy had secured got a virtually unknown young actress to play the lead, and that actress
becimmensely popular, winning numerous awards with ease. Meanwhile, the TV Helen had
auditioned for was a flop, and subsequently, Helen starred in a few other TV series that all received lukewarm
receptions, forcing her to go back to doing movies.
Her career originally on the rise, Helen wasted a year due to the flop, losing the momentum she once had, and is
now less famous than several new female artists who recently joined the company.
Daisy no longer managed her and only heard that Helen, recently, seemed to have found a wealthy patron. The
patron supported her very much, landing her several movie roles, but since the movies hadn’t been released yet,
whether those roles would help her reclaim her past glory was anyone’s guess.
After half an hour, Daisy arrived at the dressing room in a hurry.
Helen Hyde was still yelling, her voice sharp and acrimonious.
Daisy pushed open the door; everyone inside the dressing room fell silent, even Helen stopped her tirade.
In the entertainment circle, Helen's features were famously sultry, but everyone in the company knew that her
former manager was even more stunningly beautiful.
Even though Daisy was a manager, she held as much sway in Royal Entertainment as those at the top, so no
matter how dissatisfied Helen was, she didn’t dare to lash out at Daisy’s people in front of her.
Daisy glanced at the teary-eyed Elena; the young girl stood protectively behind her makeup artist, though her
eyes were red, she held back her tears, instead acting very defensively. When Daisy's gaze landed on her, she
pouted, almost ready to cry.
Daisy shot her a glare to hold it in, then glanced at Helen's dress.
Helen's dress was Armani’s last year’s spring couture, with a conspicuous lipstick stain on the hem, which stood
out because of its pale moon-colored fabric.
Seeing Daisy enter with a stern face, none of the onlookers dared to breathe loudly, even though she was a
woman, for sreason, everyone in the company was afraid of her.
Helen was the first to speak, "Daisy, this dress is meant for tonight's fashion show, it’s worth hundreds of
thousands, with only one in the entire country. Your person dirtied it, so what am | supposed to wear tonight?"
She wasn’t wrong; couture dresses ranged in the hundreds of thousands to millions and were impossible to get
even if you could afford them immediately.
Daisy said, "But it’s not like the young lady has to pay you hundreds of thousands."
Helen sharply retorted, "Just let it go? Is my money not money?"
Daisy glanced at her and said nothing
more, turning her head to the

Flora Lesser was a top-tier magazine, with great relationships with various big brands. Daisy had a good rapport
with their editor-in-chief, Ann, who would grant her request.
Jessica, having received the command, quickly left, returning in ten minutes to report that Ann agreed to loan
them a couture dress.

Daisy looked at Helen, "Take the dress off, I'll have it sent for dry cleaning." She then turned to the makeup artist
protected by Elena, "You'll cover the dry cleaning cost."
Such dresses cost tens of thousands to clean each time, but it’s still much cheaper than buying a new one. Daisy
wasn't indulgent; if you're careless, you have to bear the consequences.

Though still displeased, she couldn't refuse such an offer. Her manager whispered a few words in her ear, and
she reluctantly went to the changing room to swap dresses.
Daisy handed the bag containing the dress to the makeup artist, giving her a number as well, "They have
experience cleaning couture dresses. Give him a call and just send it over."
The young girl, just starting her career, looked at Daisy, realizing she was helping resolve the situation, thanked
her, and left crying to make the call.
